Solve excessive sweating with our Botulism Toxin treatment

Posted on: 7th Jun, 2016

Excessive sweating, also know as Hyperhidrosis, is a common and embarrassing problem. In fact, as many as three in 100 have to deal with this medical condition on a daily basis. Hot or cold, sufferers put up with uncomfortable sweats – whatever the environment.

Over time this often takes its toll on individuals’ confidence. But the problem of heavy sweating doesn’t have to stay with you for life. With anti-perspiration treatments from AP Skincare, you can regain lost confidence and be sweat-free for up to four months.

How does the anti-perspiration treatment work?

We inject the skin in the under-arm area with Botox, which affects the signal between the nerve endings and the sweat glands in the dermis.

The Botulism Toxin then binds itself to the nerve endings near the injection site and acts like a roadblock, preventing sweat from being secreted from your skin.

The toxin blocks the release of the chemical that our nerve cells use to communicate with each other. In turn, this disrupts the message sent from the nerve endings to stimulate the production of sweat, and as a result leaves you sweat-free.

Two weeks after your treatment we review the results. If required, we’ll also administer a free top up if there are still areas of excessive moisture. Once satisfactory coverage has been achieved, the Botulism Toxin will continue to work its magic for up to four months.
